FACULTY VIEW
The Evergreen local of the American
Federation of Teachers is also concerned
about underenrollment.
Though no
faculty cut-backs are expected this year ,
the teachers un ion is wondering what
their policy shoul d be in case, in the
future, a worse budget loss might
endanger some faculty joos .
In a meeting yesterda y, Oct. 22 , th p
Evergreen local passed two reso lut ions
des c ri bing their view tow a rd p ossib le
futu re Reduction In Force (RIF ) One
reso lution said that in a fi nan c ial crisis ,
. fa culty should not be laid-off without
go in g t hrough the norm al eva luative
process. The other reso luti on said t hat If
lay -offs become unavoidable . the t he n
existing proportiun of Third W n rkJ and
women faculty membe rs shou ld not be
reduced .
The facult y union promises a con tinuing discussion ot these subjects , as well
as reviewing the existing I{IF policy at
Evergreen .

Peter Camejo, the Socialist Workers
Party's candidate for President in 1976,
will speak at Evergreen today , Oct. 23, in
Lecture Hall 3 at 3: 30 p.m. His topic will
be "Racism and Unemployment. "
Camejo, 35, has been a member of the
Socialist Workers Party since 1959, and is
a long- time political activist. In the early
1960's he was active in the civil rights
movement and was a lead'ing defender of
the Cuba n revolution, a very unpopul a r
stand a t th e time. He was also active in
the Free Speech Movement at the Universit y of Cal ifornia in Berkeley.
In 1970, Camejo was a candidate for
th e U.S. Senate in Massachusetts, running
aga in st Se nat or Edward Kennedy, among
o thers. The pro-Kennedy " Boston Globe"
sa id at the time that, "The young man
Camejo draws a big response from st udenb, . , more than Senator Edward
Kennedy. "
According to Evergreen faculty member
Step hanie Coontz , a member of the Sociali st Workers Party, Camejo is a dynamic speaker and one of the most articulate leftist orators in th e United States.
Though t he topic of his speec h is racism
a nd un employme nt, it can be reasonably
ex pected th at he will touch o n a variety
of other topics .
Camejo, fluent in Spanish, is the first
U. S. cit izen of Latin American descent to
be a candidate for President of t he United
States.
Camejo's speech is spo nsored by the
Yo ung Socialist Alliance of Evergreen.

A PERSPECTIVE
Ma ster Dance class beillg held hy the Utah Repretory Dance
Theater 011 Monday, Oct . 20. Members of the troLlpe held
both beginning and intermediate level technique classes .
by Gary Plautz
Because Evergreen's enrollment for fall
quarter is about 80 students short of its
predicted enrollment , the rollege will lose
roughl y $120,000 out of its $8 million
budget for this school ye3r.
About $70,000 of that $120,000 comes
from the loss of revenue to the college
from student tuition, and the remaining
$50,000 goes for the salaries of approximately three faculty positions that were
filled before final enrollment figures were
in. With the 80 student underenrollment ,
the co llege is budgeted for 122 members ,
but 125 faculty members have been hired .
But Ed Kormondy , Vice President and
Provost of the college, made it clear in a
speech Friday, Ocl. 17, that there is going
to be no cutbacks in faculty or staff
positions in an effort to make up the
budget loss.
"Now, those positions (of the faculty) are
filled, they are committed, and that
committment will be fulfilled," said
Kormondy.
"It could have been one hell of a lot
worse," Konnondy said of the enrollment
picture, and he is right. A week before
the final enrollment figures were released
on Oct. 15, it was feared that Evergreen
could have been underenrolled by as
many as 200 students or more. But an
extention of the deadline for the payment
of tuition and a concerted effort by the
Registrar's Office and Student Accounts
Office to find those studesnts who had
nut paid tuition or, through some mix-up,
did not pay their full tuition, the
enrollment figure jumped to a respectable
2,, 507 as co mpared to the predicted
e nrollment of 2,587.
In addition to the $120,000 loss, the
college also los t about $170,000 from the
stat e Office of Program Planning and
Fiscal Management (OPPFM) because it
did not reach its predicted (or contracted)
enrollment figure for fall quarter, and
because the number of part-time students
went up from four per cent last year to
about eight p~r cent this year.
But Kormondy said that the $170,000
had not been figured into the operating
budget for t his year and , hence, will not
be missed. Kormondy, however , said,
"We did have high expectatio ns that we
wo uld get it. "
OrPFM's budget determination for
Evergreen depended on several factors,
the most important being total enrollment , the rati o of part-time to full-time
studen ts and th e ratio of lower division to
hi gher division students. Evergreen had a
greater than expected number of students
doing higher division work this quarter,
but the increase in part-time students and
thl: underenrollment negated that one
pos itive factor, in OPPFM 's computing
for the schaul's budget.
$120,000 DOWN
Since the college ha s lost $120,000 out
of its budget, cuts have to be made
somewhere to make up the loss . An
estimated $90,000 will come . from the
reserve funds that campus budgetary units
kept out of th eir budget projections. In
the past, these units customarily put three
per cent of their budget in reserve, but
this year, several units put less than this
amount in reserve. Because of this, an
additional $30,000 has to be c ut
somewhere to make the $120,000, This
$30,000, said Kormondy, will have to be
trimmed from academic budgets.
"Co ll ege-wide, there will have to be a
need for some pulling-in of the belt ," said
Kormondy,
These cuts also mean, of course. that
reserve funds on campus will be virtually
depleted.
In addition , if the pr~vious figures are
not bad enough , the student tuition loss
cuts into the Service and Activities Board
(S&A Board) budget to a tune of about
$23,000, estimated Kormondy.
But, things could have been worse .
Kormondy said if some of the more dire
predictions on underenrollment had come
true, the college alllld have lost as much
as a quarter of a million dollars.
BLACK EDUCATION I
ECONOMIC CONFERENCE
WHAT CAUSED THIS
This is the first time in' Evergreen's
history that it is underenrolled . Obviously, this is a concern to people around the
college.
Kormondy pointed out in his speech
that Evergreen is the only public four year
school in the state to experience a
consistently declining enrollment of new
students coming right out of high ~choo l.
He also said that high school seniors
gra duating and coming right into college
is dropping at all colleges, but that
Evergreen seems to be experiencing this
phenomena worst.
This fact -- and a ls o a drop in
community college transfers to Evergreen
-- has concerned people in the Admissions
Office and those involved in curricu lum
planning.
Director uf Admissions, Ken Mayer,
notes th at there has been a change in
st udent priorit ies the past few years.
Students do not seem , he said to be more
concerned with their future in and after
college than stude nt s in the lat e 1960's.
That Evergreen does not do a good job in
helping students pursue a career after
coll ege Mayer denies. But there seems to
be a problem in ge tting that message
across to prospective students, he said.
The curriculum planning process is
beginning earlier this year, and Kormondy hopes that this will enable prospective
students get a better idea of what is being
offered at Evergreen academica lly .
Mayer said that in the areas of
adm issio n s, recruitin g and curriculu m
planning, thought must be given to the
changing needs of students, but doubted

Gradually he learned the ins and

especia lly aware of housing
problems with its rules and

To the Editor:
Well. Editor baby, ya big
blabbermouth, ya sure showed
yourself to be no friend of the
people. Your revelation that we
could beat the $25 parking
extort ioll by parking in the ASH
lot inevitably killed that option
for us . The signs banning us
went up yesterday.
Poor 0[' battered pickup that I
am, I oppose the parking lot
extortion on the general principle
that paying additional fees for
state facilities when I've already
paid tuition is immoral. If there
can be an extra charge for
parking lot use , why not an
extra fee for seminar room use?
It 's an unsupportable principle
even if it is an untraditional one.
And then, too , I know th at I am
mostly paying for e lectricity for
those monslrous li ghts as well as
for th e Catch-22 si tuation where
I pay a fee to pay a salary for a

I was talking to a faculty member who
pair/ted out that every faculty member
here has their own idea of how to teach,
of what their ideal student would be, and
even of the purpose of tile school. This
lack of continuity in the community is
troublesome in many ways, Perllaps the
reason nothing mucll came out of
Quinault II was that faculty didn't really
know or agree all what kind of teaching
they silO/lid be doing. There's a marked
avsellse of rules and schoo l-wide guidelilies tllat I think is built illto Evergreen,
but I'm not sure if it is productive or
cOLllltcrprotiuctive.

it wasn 't a hell of a good reason.
So I thought. 'What would happen if
we do away with the curriculum? I'll bet,
that if the faculty is good, if the students
are se rious, things will get put together.'
At Washington our student teacher
ratio hovers between 17 and 20 students
per teacher, and I thought, 'If you don't
have departments, and if you don't have
a curriculum where there are very small
enrollments in the upper division, then it
would be possible for every single faculty
member to take his or her share of the
student s . And if they did that, there
would be a lower student / teacher ratio,
All this was in my head then, as my ideal
for a very good, state supported,
undergraduate college, I was convinced
that it was so far out, back then in 1968,
that there wouldn't be a chance of anyone
ever wanting to accept the idea,
Later I got a phone call to ask: "Would
I accept the job if it wetI' offered, I don't
think I sa id, 'Are you kidding?,' but it
was something like that.
McCann: "All the legislature did was to
authorize the beginning of a new
institution which then required the
governor to name a Board of T rustecs.
That's it. They just wanted another
co ll ege, to absorb the projected increase
of college students. The search for a
president for the new co lle ge started
immediately. I was asked along with
hundreds of other people who might be
interested in applying for the job. At that
tim e I was Dean of Faculty over at
Central Washington. Knowing how these
things usually go in academic life, I was
just fairly sure that it would go to some
big illustrious name from outside Washton; That old Charlie McCann was never
going to be president of this new college .
Well , you can get that psychological
picture. I thought , now is the time for me
to put together all of what I've ever
thought a college ought to be like, Other

sides. [ think that kind of approach is
built into the very structure here; In the
Hearing Board processes, in the Sounding
Board, in the staff's open door policy. In
each of these there is an attempt to put
authoritative personnel in between effected parties, and to have them see the
rigflt on both sides before deciding what
to do. [wonder how much this is peculiar
to you, how well other administrators fit
into doing this.
WelL its important for me to listen , and
if I change my mind, I better be honest
about that, and that's what I did, and it
. got me into one hell of alot of hot water
around here . But , you know , there is no
other way I could have lived with myse lf.
I'm naive and I'm optimistic, and I really
th ink its kind of generally true that
everybody tries to do that . There are
many different personal styles of course ,
and co rrespond ingly different demands real demands t hat come to bear on

operate.
I've a lways seen" college as an idea l
place where there w as a minimum of red
tape betw ee n the faculty member s,
bel ween disciplines, between students and
what they wanted to learn . I've seen
administration as something that ought to
provide the resources and keep track of
the records, and provide some leadership
as well, but in general to get out of the
way of all these other things. At the same
time, faculty members and students, being
part of a place, have some things that
might not have directly to do with that
learning / study situation. And there ought
to be ways in which those opinions can
be felt and heard , and as far as possible ,
acted upon.
.
In away, 1 guess that its a reactive
kind of thing, I thing its probably true to
call it that , but there is another side to
that co in , its a creative thing too. Because
things aren't locked in so far, like if
there's some kind of codified procedure,
that people felt safe with, lots of things
don't happen that way. This way, the
need is expressed, and because there is no
code to overthrow first, they can begin
to deal with it creatively and make it
happen,
I don'i think we ought to expect too
much of anyone meeting like Quinault II,
the important thing is that they keep

sift out all the rhetoric of Quinault. I
think all of the objections and reservations to Quinault that people had with
some of the rhetoric in it , have been
properly infused into the mixture and
what's generally been accepted from
Quinault is in there too.
It seems to me that as a result of all of
that process some good things have

Quinault , but you have to have
something to talk about before you can

But looking back at the places we (the
faculty and staff) had come from, where
if students wanted something, you could
forget about it. Nothing got into the
curriculum that way , of course they could
talk to faculty members, but say a faculty
member wanted something put into the
curriculum, he would propose it to the
departmental committee, who would
propose it to a divisional curriculum

When is the law illegal? When

most of us in todays ' society,
"Allfree Geoduck" started
school here at TESC in the fall
of '74. He paid his tuition and
moved on campus in order to get
to and from scolastic activities.
He lived a fair ly normal life as
student here a nd st udied hard.
Gradually he learned the ins and
ou t s of TESC and became
especia lly aware of housing
problems with its rules and
regulations . No pets, no long
visi ts from friends , etc. He kept
tl pel for awhile but fina lly gave
it away because housing found
out. He was charged the normal
fine but so meh ow forgot to pay
the fin e .

To the Editor:
Well. Editor baby, ya big
blabbermouth, ya sure showed
yourself to be no friend of the
people. Your revelation that we
could beat the $25 parking
extort ioll by parking in the ASH
lot inevitably killed that option
for us . The signs banning us
went up yesterday.
Poor 0[' battered pickup that I
am, I oppose the parking lot
extortion on the general principle
that paying additional fees for
state facilities when I've already
paid tuition is immoral. If there
can be an extra charge for
parking lot use , why not an
extra fee for seminar room use?
It 's an unsupportable principle
even if it is an untraditional one.
And then, too , I know th at I am
mostly paying for e lectricity for
those monslrous li ghts as well as
for th e Catch-22 si tuation where
I pay a fee to pay a salary for a
policeperson to arre st those of us
who haven 't paid a fee .

I was talking to a faculty member who
pair/ted out that every faculty member
here has their own idea of how to teach,
of what their ideal student would be, and
even of the purpose of tile school. This
lack of continuity in the community is
troublesome in many ways, Perllaps the
reason nothing mucll came out of
Quinault II was that faculty didn't really
know or agree all what kind of teaching
they silO/lid be doing. There's a marked
avsellse of rules and schoo l-wide guidelilies tllat I think is built illto Evergreen,
but I'm not sure if it is productive or
cOLllltcrprotiuctive.

it wasn 't a hell of a good reason.
So I thought. 'What would happen if
we do away with the curriculum? I'll bet,
that if the faculty is good, if the students
are se rious, things will get put together.'
At Washington our student teacher
ratio hovers between 17 and 20 students
per teacher, and I thought, 'If you don't
have departments, and if you don't have
a curriculum where there are very small
enrollments in the upper division, then it
would be possible for every single faculty
member to take his or her share of the
student s . And if they did that, there
would be a lower student / teacher ratio,
All this was in my head then, as my ideal
for a very good, state supported,
undergraduate college, I was convinced
that it was so far out, back then in 1968,
that there wouldn't be a chance of anyone
ever wanting to accept the idea,
Later I got a phone call to ask: "Would
I accept the job if it wetI' offered, I don't
think I sa id, 'Are you kidding?,' but it
was something like that.
McCann: "All the legislature did was to
authorize the beginning of a new
institution which then required the
governor to name a Board of T rustecs.
That's it. They just wanted another
co ll ege, to absorb the projected increase
of college students. The search for a
president for the new co lle ge started
immediately. I was asked along with
hundreds of other people who might be
interested in applying for the job. At that
tim e I was Dean of Faculty over at
Central Washington. Knowing how these
things usually go in academic life, I was
just fairly sure that it would go to some
big illustrious name from outside Washton; That old Charlie McCann was never
going to be president of this new college .
Well , you can get that psychological
picture. I thought , now is the time for me
to put together all of what I've ever
thought a college ought to be like, Other

The Underground Orientat ion Issue identifies the steps
taken by the Washington State Legislature to alter and
mend the ways of Evergreen's students. Mud , the issue
states, comprised th e arsenal of the·· legislatures first round
of assau lts, T hi s was succeeded by yard after yard of
cement. And this , has o nly recently been superceeded by "B
B" - Beauty Bark (o r what gardeners euphemistically call ,
'bark dust ' l.
There is an oversight , however, in the Journal 's previous
account. We have now uncovered an even more passionate
and insidiou s affront. In fac t, so pervasive has its
instal lation and implementation been that our first
researchers did not recognize the potential threat it posed.
This first clear subjegation of our freedoms occurI'd back in
the planning stages of the college, before any stu dents had
been on campus. I am referring, specifically, to the
und ergrou nd network of tunnels and corridors which
connect all of the campus's buildings .
I have not talked to the facilities director and planner or
to the security and utilities staff which man the tunnels and
operate the transport running th ro ugh them, but given the
inflammatory climate on a ll coll ege campuses during the
period thi s schoo l was conce ived, it is not hard to
urtderstand the reason behind these ' underground pathways ,
In case everyone is not fami liar w ith the facts surrounding
the school's or igin , I wi ll point out just these two . First, it is
wide ly held th a t there are gun turret s on the roofs of both
Lenore Norrgard, Radical Women and
Marcel Hatch, Freedom Socialist Party

In states where the Equal Rights Amendment has been passed, big business is pressuring state governments to wipe out leg .islation that previously protected women
. and minors on the job , On Oct 15th at
Evergreen's Congressional Forum we had
the opportunity to ask our national representatives what they are doing to support the ERA and extend protective legislation to men.
Evergreen student Marcel Hatch described the situation working people in
Washington are facing with the loss of
protective · legislation and asked, "Wha t
do you propose to do on a national level
to extend protective legislation to men,
while protecting the rights of women and
guaranteeing the eight hour day and safe
working conditions?
Representat ive Joel Pritchard (R Dist.}) responded by recalling an encounter he'd had with "a group of ladies" before the passage of the ERA. He said that
_thes~ women wanted to move into execu -·
tive positions but were unable to do so
because the jobs required them to work
over eight hours a day, Hatch countered
that this incident of discrimination dem onstrated the need for raising women 's
legal rights at the same time as workers '
rights . At this point Pritchard asked
"What is the difference between women
and workers?" Hatch 's answer was cut
short by the Me.
Pritchard's question exposes the ignorance of the complex nature of women 's
oppression as wage-earners a nd as an oppressed sex, as well as genera l unwilling ness to deal wi th the issue .
The loss of protective legislation for
workers in Washington has received only
minimal media coverage , A brief look at
its history is necessa ry to clarify the situa tion.
Before the ERA, protections for women
and minors included a maximum fortyhour work week with no forced overtime ;
mea l and rest breaks;, specific lighting,
ventilation, and temperature standards;
weight lifting limitations; uniforms provided by the employer; rest rooms; and
clothing storage facilities,
Washington voters passed the Equal
Rights Amendment in 1972, with the
promise that this protective legislation
would be ex tended to men. The Washington legisla ture set up the Industrial Welfare Committee to rewrite these protective
laws to eliminate non-beneficial laws and
extend beneficial ones to men.

The Underground Orientat ion Issue identifies the steps
taken by the Washington State Legislature to alter and
mend the ways of Evergreen's students. Mud , the issue
states, comprised th e arsenal of the·· legislatures first round
of assau lts, T hi s was succeeded by yard after yard of
cement. And this , has o nly recently been superceeded by "B
B" - Beauty Bark (o r what gardeners euphemistically call ,
'bark dust ' l.
There is an oversight , however, in the Journal 's previous
account. We have now uncovered an even more passionate
and insidiou s affront. In fac t, so pervasive has its
instal lation and implementation been that our first
researchers did not recognize the potential threat it posed.
This first clear subjegation of our freedoms occurI'd back in
the planning stages of the college, before any stu dents had
been on campus. I am referring, specifically, to the
und ergrou nd network of tunnels and corridors which
connect all of the campus's buildings .
I have not talked to the facilities director and planner or
to the security and utilities staff which man the tunnels and
operate the transport running th ro ugh them, but given the
inflammatory climate on a ll coll ege campuses during the
period thi s schoo l was conce ived, it is not hard to
urtderstand the reason behind these ' underground pathways ,
In case everyone is not fami liar w ith the facts surrounding
the school's or igin , I wi ll point out just these two . First, it is
wide ly held th a t there are gun turret s on the roofs of both
Lenore Norrgard, Radical Women and
Marcel Hatch, Freedom Socialist Party
the CAB building and the Library bulding . Secondly, the
glass in the buildings all around the mall is resistent to
shattering, either by rocks, bullets or Molotov Cocktails . .
Prime administrative offices are tucked away on the third
floor of the library, in a hall that can be locked at both
ends, and in rooms that do not overlook ' the mall. Rather,
they face a peacefu l patch of woodland that can be
observed from an outside balcony that runs conveniently be '
the ir offices. The truth is, the campus was constructed to
wi thstand the affects of mass riots and to foster troop
movements and the dispersal or isolation of activist groups. '
Not the least of their impliments being the underground
tunnels . For these would allow the admin istration's forces to
emerge in severa l spots surrou nding the plaza, or in the
basement of any of the campus buildings.
Bureaucrats have seen additional uses for these tunnels,
besides this imitation of Baton Rouge tactics. They have
seer, that by stringing electrical wires, ' heating systems"
telephone lines and even the air circulation sys tems in the
tu r,neis, they cou ld reduce their operating overhead, for
only slightl y higher insta llation costs,
I have considered the existence of these tunnels and their ·
use for a considerable amount of time, and can not help but
offer the following humanitarian suggestion to the student
community. Given that superficiali ty is a major prob lem on

NATIVE AMERICANS
by Bill Cameron
In the next year. Native Americans and
the people of the world will have the op portunity to find out if the much-promoted Bicentennial is a true reaffirmation
of '" liberty a nd justice for all"' or a sha llow
commercialized farce.
A large group of tradi tionally-oriented
Nat iv e Americans has begun a peaceful
campa ign . focusing on the BicentenniaL
!o force the U. S. govern ment to recognize
the treaty rights of 24 sovereign Native
American nat ions wh ich are now under
the not-so-benevo lent rule of the Bureau
ot Indian Affairs (BIAl. On Oct. 14, they
staged demonstrations in a number of
cities across the cou ntry, including Seatt le,
Po rtland. Denver, Buffalo and Wichita .
Kansas.
The demonstration in Seatt le began at
nt'on outside the United States Court
Hou se. Several Na tive Americans, a black
man. a young Fil ipino, a white lawyer.
and a nother white man from the NonInt e r ve ntion With Chi le Committee,
spo ke out agai nst the BIA 's treatment of
Native Amer icans . Heavy emphasis was
pl aced o n the internati onal im portance of
the struggle for In dian trea ty rights. The
Surviv a l of American Indian Association
put out this stat ement to the press:

Ida Stuntz Killsright, who had wi th her

day: '"My husband was murdered defend ing treaty land, defending his rights, fighting for me and my kids. . Our children
are our future. I'm fighting for my boys
because one of these days they're going to
grow up to be men, and I don't want
them to be murdered like my husband
was.
CARAVAN
After the demonstration in Seattle was
closed with a traditional Native Ameri-·
can song, participa nts with cars were
asked to join in a caravan to deliver an
open letter to the superintendent of the
BIA office in Everett. About 70 - 80 of
the 150 - 200 people outside the courthouse did so .
There had been no police in evidence in
Sea ttle, but by the time the demonstrators
arrived in Everett there were numerous
uniformed cops visible, some in full riot
gear. When the BIA superintendent, Bud
Losar, came out to meet the delegation,
the open letter was read to him and to the
on lookers. It demanded that the BIA be
abo li shed by July 4, 1976, calling it '"a
thieving and murderous tool of the U.S.
government ."' Mr. Losar promised to deliver th e lett er to Washington.
Sa id a n other speaker: " W e're not
aga in st white peop le - we're not aga inst
any people in particular. We are not enemies with white people; the ene my of all
llf us is the United Sta tes Govern ment. '"
While a seco nd traditional song signa lled the end of the day's eve nt s, Leroy
Mill s talked abou t the Native Americans'
pla ns t(l see their guara nt eed treaty rights
imp lement ed . He was dnx io us for peo ple
to hear that jimmy l.itt le. who was the
on ly real '"suspect '" the FB I had come up
with during their Pine Ridge manhunt ,
ha d be en shot to death in ea rl y Sep tembl'r . The news '" has yet to reac h any
da mn nt'w sp"per. and thl' goddamn newspa per people aren 't especia lly reporting
news - they can 't even get in to Pine
I\idge to tdl th e peop le about what' s hap pening thl're ."'
Mr . Mills told of plans leading up to
the pea k of the Bicen tennial celebrations
in Wa shington and Valll'Y Forge nex t july
4 . The next thing on the agenda , he sa id .
is another demonstration on Thanksgiving " probably in Everett aga in, '"to see
how lar this letter wen!. " And nex t Apri l,
when a Bict:'ntennial wagon tra in leaves
SI. joseph . Mi ssou ri , for Washington. it
wil l be foll bwcd by a band of Native
Ame ri cans.
Since August a group of traditional
chiefs has been in Washington trying to
meet with President Ford to negotiate the
treaty agreements the government has de'f aulted on in the past century. The Nationa l Native American Solidarit y Committee hopes to peacefully attract enough
public attention to force Ford into
acknow ledging the lega l as well as moral
justice of their claims. Th en it should be
poss ible to restore to the various sovereign Native Amer ica n nations the small
parts of North America which lo ng ago.
the government agreed wou ld belong to
these people forever.
Postscript : There was no o v ert action
by the po lice during either demonstration,
but afterwards , driving sou th on / -5 be tween Everett and Seattle , we saw an o ld
yellow pickup , with three or four Native
AmericarlS who had been at th e demonstrat ions , including at least one who had
be!,11 a speaker, pulled Oller behind two
marked patrol cars . Ti,e Native Arnericarls
were out of th e truck w ith their arms
stretched 6uI on the hood; it certai'l ly
didll 't appear that they were receiving a
speedillg ticket. This . I think , call be seen
as a typ ical examp le of police harassment :

FOOD STAMPS
Amid nationwide protests over a lleged

Evergrl'en student s are app lying for this
ty pe of aid with greater co nveni ence than
eve r bl'fore.
A representative from the Food Stamp
Office in Tumwater is conduct in g

Presented by Kochie Box Productions
in conjunction with the Gig Commission
gover nment estimates, erroneous payments totaled around $800 million during
the last fiscal year.
Earlier this week, Pres ident Ford sent a
bill to Congress designed to satisfy his
conservative Republican constituency by
eliminating all food stamp services to
households whose incomes exceed federa l poverty levels. The official poverty
level for a family of four is a yearly income of $5,050. The move would result in
a 17 percent discontinuance of food
stamps and an annual savin gs of $1 billion.
Agricu ltu re committees in both the
House and Senate have commissioned
studies of food sub sidy programs. One
suggestion to the reform-minded Congress
has been the eliminat ion of students,
theoretically well-off enough to afford
college expenses, from food stamp rosters.
About 400 Evergreeners, or 16 percent
of the student population, receive food
stamps, Brinkman estimated. However,
fewer applications than usual have been
received so far this year, she sa id .
'"Most of the Evergreeners on food
sta mps are paying for tuition from loans
o r grants, '" Brinkman said.
'"I n many cases their. parents are willing
to support them, but they want to make
it on their own. '"
She sa id she felt students were not
taking adva ntage of the food relief system
- "If they are defrauding us, we don 't
know about it. "
Food sta mp co upons , used like money
in grocery stores , a re issued by the federal
gcwernment and distr ibuted by cities and
coun ties, The stat e of Washington wa s
fined 520,500 last year fo r handing out
more federa l money than a uthorize d.
One of the resu lts is a june, 1975,
prov ision of fo od stamp regulations which
makes a student who li ves away from
home ineli gible if he is counted as a ta x
dependent by a household whose income
is too high to get food stamps . The
parent s of an applicant must comple te
fo rm s indicating th e ex tent of their child's
tax dependency and fin ancial support they
give him / her.
Food Ctlupo ns are sc Id to those eligible
at prices dependent on the size of the
hou se hold a nd mon thl y net incom ... The
net income figure takes into accoun t
deductions for medica l expenses. shelter
cos ts. child support or a limony. and - in
t he case of co ll ege student s - tu it ion a nd
fees.
For example , to qualify for food stamps
a sin gle person may have a max imum
mon thly net income of $215, and may
receive ' $48 worth of coupo ns. He pays
between $38 for them , depending on hi s
income.
One precaution taken by food stam p
off icials against cheating is a system of
mandatory visits a fter a nd initial threemonth period to hous e holds claiming
under $20 per month income . (These
household s obtain th eir co upons free.)
"It doesn't seem logical that they could
surv iv e on that littl e income," Brinkman
said of Evergreeners in this category.
'"Ye t when we visit the , somet imes in a
shack in the woods , they' re living exactly
the way they say th ey are.'"
In additi on, recipients of food coupons
must have cook ing facilities - even a
ca mpfire, Brinkman sa id - and must
store and cook their foodstuffs separately
from non-recipients .
During the current fiscal year, about
1,600 federal emp loyees are administering
a $6.6 billion food stamp program - half
the total USDA budget serving
9 . 172,100 people. Yet Deputy Commissioner : of Welfare Carl B. Williams says
'Tm convinced that taxpayers, through
food stamps. are innocently supporting an
enormous amount of ill egal ' Steeet
business' - from drugs to crap games and
prostit ution. '"
No one knows how much black market
iood stamp activitiy goes on . Williams
describes the process :
"'If a person gets $100 in food stamps
that he wants to spend on rent or booze,
he just sell s them to a black marketeer
for. say, $80 . This middleman then sell s
them for $90 to a crooked grocer , who
gets the full $100 from the government.
That way , everyone makes an easy profit
and the government gets ripped off. '"
Ms. Brinkman said she has had no
complaints of recipients of food stamps at
Ev e rgreen engaging in black market
activity.
Whi le walking through the parking lot
Tuesday, Oct. 21, Bierman noted that it
was not particularly over-parked that
day. He said in a case like that, nobody's
car would be towed away, and concluded
that if people just be more considerate to
ASH residents, nobody's car will ever be
towed away.

the treaty rights of 24 sovereign Native
American nat ions wh ich are now under

staged demonstrations in a number of
cities across the cou ntry, including Seatt le,
Po rtland. Denver, Buffalo and Wichita .
Kansas.
The demonstration in Seatt le began at

Hou se. Several Na tive Americans, a black

Ida Stuntz Killsright, who had wi th her

day: '"My husband was murdered defend ing treaty land, defending his rights, fighting for me and my kids. . Our children

because one of these days they're going to

was.
CARAVAN
After the demonstration in Seattle was
closed with a traditional Native Ameri-·
can song, participa nts with cars were
asked to join in a caravan to deliver an
open letter to the superintendent of the
BIA office in Everett. About 70 - 80 of
the 150 - 200 people outside the courthouse did so .
There had been no police in evidence in
Sea ttle, but by the time the demonstrators
arrived in Everett there were numerous
uniformed cops visible, some in full riot
gear. When the BIA superintendent, Bud
Losar, came out to meet the delegation,
the open letter was read to him and to the
on lookers. It demanded that the BIA be
abo li shed by July 4, 1976, calling it '"a
thieving and murderous tool of the U.S.
government ."' Mr. Losar promised to deliver th e lett er to Washington.
Sa id a n other speaker: " W e're not
aga in st white peop le - we're not aga inst
any people in particular. We are not enemies with white people; the ene my of all
llf us is the United Sta tes Govern ment. '"
While a seco nd traditional song signa lled the end of the day's eve nt s, Leroy
Mill s talked abou t the Native Americans'
pla ns t(l see their guara nt eed treaty rights
imp lement ed . He was dnx io us for peo ple
to hear that jimmy l.itt le. who was the

da mn nt'w sp"per. and thl' goddamn newspa per people aren 't especia lly reporting
news - they can 't even get in to Pine
I\idge to tdl th e peop le about what' s hap pening thl're ."'
Mr . Mills told of plans leading up to
the pea k of the Bicen tennial celebrations
in Wa shington and Valll'Y Forge nex t july
4 . The next thing on the agenda , he sa id .
is another demonstration on Thanksgiving " probably in Everett aga in, '"to see

wil l be foll bwcd by a band of Native
Ame ri cans.
Since August a group of traditional
chiefs has been in Washington trying to
meet with President Ford to negotiate the
treaty agreements the government has de'f aulted on in the past century. The Nationa l Native American Solidarit y Committee hopes to peacefully attract enough
public attention to force Ford into
acknow ledging the lega l as well as moral
justice of their claims. Th en it should be
poss ible to restore to the various sovereign Native Amer ica n nations the small
parts of North America which lo ng ago.
the government agreed wou ld belong to
these people forever.
Postscript : There was no o v ert action
by the po lice during either demonstration,
but afterwards , driving sou th on / -5 be tween Everett and Seattle , we saw an o ld
yellow pickup , with three or four Native
AmericarlS who had been at th e demonstrat ions , including at least one who had

Presented by Kochie Box Productions
in conjunction with the Gig Commission
gover nment estimates, erroneous payments totaled around $800 million during
the last fiscal year.
Earlier this week, Pres ident Ford sent a
bill to Congress designed to satisfy his
conservative Republican constituency by
eliminating all food stamp services to
households whose incomes exceed federa l poverty levels. The official poverty
level for a family of four is a yearly income of $5,050. The move would result in
a 17 percent discontinuance of food
stamps and an annual savin gs of $1 billion.
Agricu ltu re committees in both the
House and Senate have commissioned
studies of food sub sidy programs. One
suggestion to the reform-minded Congress
has been the eliminat ion of students,
theoretically well-off enough to afford
college expenses, from food stamp rosters.
About 400 Evergreeners, or 16 percent
of the student population, receive food
stamps, Brinkman estimated. However,
fewer applications than usual have been
received so far this year, she sa id .
'"Most of the Evergreeners on food
sta mps are paying for tuition from loans
o r grants, '" Brinkman said.
'"I n many cases their. parents are willing
to support them, but they want to make
it on their own. '"
She sa id she felt students were not
taking adva ntage of the food relief system
- "If they are defrauding us, we don 't
know about it. "
Food sta mp co upons , used like money
in grocery stores , a re issued by the federal
gcwernment and distr ibuted by cities and
coun ties, The stat e of Washington wa s
fined 520,500 last year fo r handing out
more federa l money than a uthorize d.
One of the resu lts is a june, 1975,
prov ision of fo od stamp regulations which
makes a student who li ves away from
home ineli gible if he is counted as a ta x
dependent by a household whose income
is too high to get food stamps . The
parent s of an applicant must comple te
fo rm s indicating th e ex tent of their child's
tax dependency and fin ancial support they
give him / her.
Food Ctlupo ns are sc Id to those eligible
at prices dependent on the size of the
hou se hold a nd mon thl y net incom ... The
net income figure takes into accoun t
deductions for medica l expenses. shelter
cos ts. child support or a limony. and - in
t he case of co ll ege student s - tu it ion a nd
fees.
For example , to qualify for food stamps
a sin gle person may have a max imum
mon thly net income of $215, and may
receive ' $48 worth of coupo ns. He pays
between $38 for them , depending on hi s
income.
One precaution taken by food stam p
off icials against cheating is a system of
mandatory visits a fter a nd initial threemonth period to hous e holds claiming
under $20 per month income . (These
household s obtain th eir co upons free.)
"It doesn't seem logical that they could
surv iv e on that littl e income," Brinkman
said of Evergreeners in this category.
'"Ye t when we visit the , somet imes in a
shack in the woods , they' re living exactly
the way they say th ey are.'"
In additi on, recipients of food coupons
must have cook ing facilities - even a
ca mpfire, Brinkman sa id - and must
store and cook their foodstuffs separately
from non-recipients .
During the current fiscal year, about
1,600 federal emp loyees are administering
a $6.6 billion food stamp program - half
the total USDA budget serving
9 . 172,100 people. Yet Deputy Commissioner : of Welfare Carl B. Williams says
'Tm convinced that taxpayers, through
food stamps. are innocently supporting an
enormous amount of ill egal ' Steeet
business' - from drugs to crap games and
prostit ution. '"
No one knows how much black market
iood stamp activitiy goes on . Williams
describes the process :
"'If a person gets $100 in food stamps
that he wants to spend on rent or booze,
he just sell s them to a black marketeer
for. say, $80 . This middleman then sell s
them for $90 to a crooked grocer , who
gets the full $100 from the government.
That way , everyone makes an easy profit
and the government gets ripped off. '"
Ms. Brinkman said she has had no
complaints of recipients of food stamps at
Ev e rgreen engaging in black market
activity.
Whi le walking through the parking lot
Tuesday, Oct. 21, Bierman noted that it
was not particularly over-parked that
day. He said in a case like that, nobody's
car would be towed away, and concluded
that if people just be more considerate to
ASH residents, nobody's car will ever be
towed away.

CORPORATE TAX
by Toe Morawski
How can I reduce m y taxes7 To most
stu de nts, this sounds li ke a question for
their pa rents, or perhaps so mething to
learn abo ut fo r future refe rence. Many
stude nt s however w h o are W ashin gton
vo ters w ill have a cha nge to a lter the tax
str ucture of their state a nd perha ps even
lower the taxes ' pai d b y the ir fe llow
citi zens, in th is November's electi on .
T h is opport un i t y is presen ted b y
In iti a ti ve 314 , which o n the ballo t rea ds:
"S h all co rpo ra tio ns pay a t welve percen t
exc ise tax measured b y incom e so that
spec ial schoo l lev ies may b e reduced or
elimin a ted ?" If passed , it wou ld p ro vide
for a twel ve percent tax o n the pro fit s of
co rpora ti o ns do ing business in this sta te,
th e proceeds of which wo uld be used to
redu ce o r eliminat e special sc hoo l levies.
Wh o cou ld be aga inst ta king a little b ite
o ut o f fa t corpo ra te p rofit s to the benefi t
of t he co mm o n m a n ? How eve r, it is no t
tha t simple, a nd Initia tive 31 4 w ill have
a n effect on a ny import sta te issues
revo lv ing around schools a nd taxes. [n
recen t years there h as been much concen
abo ut th e inc reas in g burden of p roperty
taxes o n th e indiv id ua l. T h e b ul k of
these taxes. in the form of specia l levies,
go to support th e p ub lic school system.
Initi a ti ve 314 wo ul d ra ise $1 95 mill ion,
sh ift in g so m e of t h e b u rde n from
in di v id ua l taxpayers to corporati o ns. T his
m ig ht no t tu rn o ut to be as mu ch of a
b less in g as it so unds. Oppo nen ts of the
in itia ti ve cla im th e co nsumer w ill end up
l ooti n g th e b il l. as th e corpo r a ti o n s
increase t heir prices w ith the tax a n d just
pass it o n .
A n o th e r im po rt a nt qu es ti o n co n ce n s
taxpaye r cont ro l ove r the sch oo ls . Under
t he curre nt system o f taxation, the schoo ls
m ust go directl y to the taxpaye rs for
m oney by calling a specia l levy election .
The taxpayers can indi ca te disapproval by
vo ti ng d ow n th e levy. The powe r of thi s
di rect relati o nship wo uld be red uced or
eliminated with eli minat ion of the levies .
A third o bj ec tio n to the ini tia tive is that it
is no t a com p rehensive so luti o n to the
prob lem of tax reform in the sta te . It is
in complete even as far as schoo l suppor t
goes , a nd revenues might be subject to
fl uctua tio ns, tied to those ·,)f co rpo ra te
prof its. So me spec ial lev ies may still be
needed .
S up porte rs poin t ou t tha t a lthough it is
not a co m prehensive so lut ion , it is a step
toward th e refo rm th at peop le wa nt.
Ind iv id ua ls pay ninety per cent of th e
taxes in Washington , a nd businesses on ly
ten percent . T he init ia ti ve wou ld begin to
ba la nce those fig ures. It's effec ti ve rate
w0 ul d be abou t six per cent , since sta te
taxes are ded uctable fro m federa l taxes.
Th is wo ul d keep a grea te r pe rcentage of
tax dolla rs in th e sta te. The increase
wo u ld not be passed on to t he consumer,
sa y t he su pporters , because th e co rporations do not se t p rices by sta te.
It can be easi ly seen tha t Initia tive 314
poses some complex q uest ions to t he
vo ter. Is the vote r informed? A random
survey of stude nts co nducted informa ll y
show(,d li ttle know ledge of t he int iat ive .
Mos t stude nt s had neve r heard of it .
Apparent ly they are con tent to co nsign
such matters to t he future, and ca st the
fate o f In it iat ive 314 to the wind.

CORPORATE TAX
by Toe Morawski
How can I reduce m y taxes7 To most
stu de nts, this sounds li ke a question for
their pa rents, or perhaps so mething to
learn abo ut fo r future refe rence. Many
stude nt s however w h o are W ashin gton
vo ters w ill have a cha nge to a lter the tax
str ucture of their state a nd perha ps even
lower the taxes ' pai d b y the ir fe llow
citi zens, in th is November's electi on .
T h is opport un i t y is presen ted b y
In iti a ti ve 314 , which o n the ballo t rea ds:
"S h all co rpo ra tio ns pay a t welve percen t
exc ise tax measured b y incom e so that
spec ial schoo l lev ies may b e reduced or
elimin a ted ?" If passed , it wou ld p ro vide
for a twel ve percent tax o n the pro fit s of
co rpora ti o ns do ing business in this sta te,
th e proceeds of which wo uld be used to
redu ce o r eliminat e special sc hoo l levies.
Wh o cou ld be aga inst ta king a little b ite
o ut o f fa t corpo ra te p rofit s to the benefi t
of t he co mm o n m a n ? How eve r, it is no t
tha t simple, a nd Initia tive 31 4 w ill have
a n effect on a ny import sta te issues
revo lv ing around schools a nd taxes. [n
recen t years there h as been much concen
abo ut th e inc reas in g burden of p roperty
taxes o n th e indiv id ua l. T h e b ul k of
these taxes. in the form of specia l levies,
go to support th e p ub lic school system.
Initi a ti ve 314 wo ul d ra ise $1 95 mill ion,
sh ift in g so m e of t h e b u rde n from
in di v id ua l taxpayers to corporati o ns. T his
m ig ht no t tu rn o ut to be as mu ch of a
b less in g as it so unds. Oppo nen ts of the
in itia ti ve cla im th e co nsumer w ill end up
l ooti n g th e b il l. as th e corpo r a ti o n s
increase t heir prices w ith the tax a n d just
pass it o n .
A n o th e r im po rt a nt qu es ti o n co n ce n s
taxpaye r cont ro l ove r the sch oo ls . Under
t he curre nt system o f taxation, the schoo ls
m ust go directl y to the taxpaye rs for
m oney by calling a specia l levy election .
The taxpayers can indi ca te disapproval by
vo ti ng d ow n th e levy. The powe r of thi s
di rect relati o nship wo uld be red uced or
eliminated with eli minat ion of the levies .
A third o bj ec tio n to the ini tia tive is that it
is no t a com p rehensive so luti o n to the
prob lem of tax reform in the sta te . It is
in complete even as far as schoo l suppor t
goes , a nd revenues might be subject to
fl uctua tio ns, tied to those ·,)f co rpo ra te
prof its. So me spec ial lev ies may still be
needed .
S up porte rs poin t ou t tha t a lthough it is
not a co m prehensive so lut ion , it is a step
toward th e refo rm th at peop le wa nt.
Ind iv id ua ls pay ninety per cent of th e
taxes in Washington , a nd businesses on ly
ten percent . T he init ia ti ve wou ld begin to
ba la nce those fig ures. It's effec ti ve rate
w0 ul d be abou t six per cent , since sta te
taxes are ded uctable fro m federa l taxes.
Th is wo ul d keep a grea te r pe rcentage of
tax dolla rs in th e sta te. The increase
wo u ld not be passed on to t he consumer,
sa y t he su pporters , because th e co rporations do not se t p rices by sta te.
It can be easi ly seen tha t Initia tive 314
poses some complex q uest ions to t he
vo ter. Is the vote r informed? A random
survey of stude nts co nducted informa ll y
show(,d li ttle know ledge of t he int iat ive .
Mos t stude nt s had neve r heard of it .
Apparent ly they are con tent to co nsign
such matters to t he future, and ca st the
fate o f In it iat ive 314 to the wind.

CENTER OF THE WrllRlWIND
T he rea l leader of the movement is 7Gyear-old Maggie Kuhn, a powerhouse (If
energy and a darling of the media . A ty p ical day in early October began with
Ku hn leaving her Philadelphia ho me be fore daw n to reach Chicago in time fo r a
speaking en gagement at an HEW confer ence, a luncheon and five different media
interviews. By early evening she was back
on a p lane for Philadelphia - doing some
homework generated by her testimony in
Wash ington the previous day . Sin ce January I , the feisty Ku hn has logged over
11 0,000 miles on Gray Pa nther bus iness .
The ma jor p roblem the Pa n thers face is
m oney . Th e Pan thers charge no du es or
membership fees. They rely prima rily on
fo unda tions - now hit hard by the recessio n . " W e' ve been m aking a lot of applica tio ns for fun ds, bu t a ren't getting positive a n swers," says n ews let ter edi tor
C ha rl es P resto n .
Money or no, th e Gray Panther headq uarters in a Phil adelph ia churc h base ment can hardly keep up wit h Its mai l. '
Between 20 and 30 letters a day request
info rmation; Ku h n gets 15 requests for
speeches or adv ice; and the Panthers'
NurSing Ho me P roject gets 10 letters. At
that ra te, Kuhn's "young, brash, bushyta iled organ izat ion" will ou tl ive us all.

FACULTY VIEW
The Evergreen local of the American
Federation of Teachers is also concerned
about underenrollment.
Though no
faculty cut-backs are expected this year ,
the teachers un ion is wondering what
their policy shoul d be in case, in the
future, a worse budget loss might
endanger some faculty joos .
In a meeting yesterda y, Oct. 22 , th p
Evergreen local passed two reso lut ions
des c ri bing their view tow a rd p ossib le
futu re Reduction In Force (RIF ) One
reso lution said that in a fi nan c ial crisis ,
. fa culty should not be laid-off without
go in g t hrough the norm al eva luative
process. The other reso luti on said t hat If
lay -offs become unavoidable . the t he n
existing proportiun of Third W n rkJ and
women faculty membe rs shou ld not be
reduced .
The facult y union promises a con tinuing discussion ot these subjects , as well
as reviewing the existing I{IF policy at
Evergreen .

PRES. CANDIDATE HERE

......
Peter Camejo, the Socialist Workers
Party's candidate for President in 1976,
will speak at Evergreen today , Oct. 23, in
Lecture Hall 3 at 3: 30 p.m. His topic will
be "Racism and Unemployment. "
Camejo, 35, has been a member of the
Socialist Workers Party since 1959, and is
a long- time political activist. In the early
1960's he was active in the civil rights
movement and was a lead'ing defender of
the Cuba n revolution, a very unpopul a r
stand a t th e time. He was also active in
the Free Speech Movement at the Universit y of Cal ifornia in Berkeley.
In 1970, Camejo was a candidate for
th e U.S. Senate in Massachusetts, running
aga in st Se nat or Edward Kennedy, among
o thers. The pro-Kennedy " Boston Globe"
sa id at the time that, "The young man
Camejo draws a big response from st udenb, . , more than Senator Edward
Kennedy. "
According to Evergreen faculty member
Step hanie Coontz , a member of the Sociali st Workers Party, Camejo is a dynamic speaker and one of the most articulate leftist orators in th e United States.
Though t he topic of his speec h is racism
a nd un employme nt, it can be reasonably
ex pected th at he will touch o n a variety
of other topics .
Camejo, fluent in Spanish, is the first
U. S. cit izen of Latin American descent to
be a candidate for President of t he United
States.
Camejo's speech is spo nsored by the
Yo ung Socialist Alliance of Evergreen.

A PERSPECTIVE
Ma ster Dance class beillg held hy the Utah Repretory Dance
Theater 011 Monday, Oct . 20. Members of the troLlpe held
both beginning and intermediate level technique classes .
by Gary Plautz
Because Evergreen's enrollment for fall
quarter is about 80 students short of its
predicted enrollment , the rollege will lose
roughl y $120,000 out of its $8 million
budget for this school ye3r.
About $70,000 of that $120,000 comes
from the loss of revenue to the college
from student tuition, and the remaining
$50,000 goes for the salaries of approximately three faculty positions that were
filled before final enrollment figures were
in. With the 80 student underenrollment ,
the co llege is budgeted for 122 members ,
but 125 faculty members have been hired .
But Ed Kormondy , Vice President and
Provost of the college, made it clear in a
speech Friday, Ocl. 17, that there is going
to be no cutbacks in faculty or staff
positions in an effort to make up the
budget loss.
"Now, those positions (of the faculty) are
filled, they are committed, and that
committment will be fulfilled," said
Kormondy.
"It could have been one hell of a lot
worse," Konnondy said of the enrollment
picture, and he is right. A week before
the final enrollment figures were released
on Oct. 15, it was feared that Evergreen
could have been underenrolled by as
many as 200 students or more. But an
extention of the deadline for the payment
of tuition and a concerted effort by the
Registrar's Office and Student Accounts
Office to find those studesnts who had
nut paid tuition or, through some mix-up,
did not pay their full tuition, the
enrollment figure jumped to a respectable
2,, 507 as co mpared to the predicted
e nrollment of 2,587.
In addition to the $120,000 loss, the
college also los t about $170,000 from the
stat e Office of Program Planning and
Fiscal Management (OPPFM) because it
did not reach its predicted (or contracted)
enrollment figure for fall quarter, and
because the number of part-time students
went up from four per cent last year to
about eight p~r cent this year.
But Kormondy said that the $170,000
had not been figured into the operating
budget for t his year and , hence, will not
be missed. Kormondy, however , said,
"We did have high expectatio ns that we
wo uld get it. "
OrPFM's budget determination for
Evergreen depended on several factors,
the most important being total enrollment , the rati o of part-time to full-time
studen ts and th e ratio of lower division to
hi gher division students. Evergreen had a
greater than expected number of students
doing higher division work this quarter,
but the increase in part-time students and
thl: underenrollment negated that one
pos itive factor, in OPPFM 's computing
for the schaul's budget.
$120,000 DOWN
Since the college ha s lost $120,000 out
of its budget, cuts have to be made
somewhere to make up the loss . An
estimated $90,000 will come . from the
reserve funds that campus budgetary units
kept out of th eir budget projections. In
the past, these units customarily put three
per cent of their budget in reserve, but
this year, several units put less than this
amount in reserve. Because of this, an
additional $30,000 has to be c ut
somewhere to make the $120,000, This
$30,000, said Kormondy, will have to be
trimmed from academic budgets.
"Co ll ege-wide, there will have to be a
need for some pulling-in of the belt ," said
Kormondy,
These cuts also mean, of course. that
reserve funds on campus will be virtually
depleted.
In addition , if the pr~vious figures are
not bad enough , the student tuition loss
cuts into the Service and Activities Board
(S&A Board) budget to a tune of about
$23,000, estimated Kormondy.
But, things could have been worse .
Kormondy said if some of the more dire
predictions on underenrollment had come
true, the college alllld have lost as much
as a quarter of a million dollars.

ECONOMIC CONFERENCE
WHAT CAUSED THIS
This is the first time in' Evergreen's
history that it is underenrolled . Obviously, this is a concern to people around the
college.
Kormondy pointed out in his speech
that Evergreen is the only public four year
school in the state to experience a
consistently declining enrollment of new
students coming right out of high ~choo l.
He also said that high school seniors
gra duating and coming right into college
is dropping at all colleges, but that
Evergreen seems to be experiencing this
phenomena worst.
This fact -- and a ls o a drop in
community college transfers to Evergreen
-- has concerned people in the Admissions
Office and those involved in curricu lum

st udent priorit ies the past few years.

concerned with their future in and after
college than stude nt s in the lat e 1960's.
That Evergreen does not do a good job in
helping students pursue a career after
coll ege Mayer denies. But there seems to
be a problem in ge tting that message
across to prospective students, he said.
The curriculum planning process is
beginning earlier this year, and Kormondy hopes that this will enable prospective
students get a better idea of what is being
offered at Evergreen academica lly .
Mayer said that in the areas of
adm issio n s, recruitin g and curriculu m
planning, thought must be given to the
changing needs of students, but doubted
